Lady Moon

My writing about the moon! Personally, I love the moon much more than the sun. I'm a night person, unsuprisingly. PLlease R&R!!

 

Lady Moon, Lady Moon

You’ve seen the rise and fall of nations

Hearts broken and children born

Fortunes made and families torn

You see the mysteries of the darkness

And you are not afraid

 

Lady Moon, Lady Moon

Why be so sad so soon?

Your children have fallen

But so many still rise

Dazzling the mortals

With their brightness in the skies

 

Lady Moon, Lady Moon

Do not hide in the cloudy cocoon

The world needs you

Your children cannot bear your burden

 

Lady Moon, Lady Moon

Come out and lay

On your favorite velvet blanket

Sprinkled with diamonds

Your beauty is unparalleled

Do not listen to those fools

Who worship your brother

The vain sun

 

Lady Moon, Lady Moon

Oh benign goddess

How I love

How you kiss my cheek each night

With your soft gentle light

Your brother is so harsh and burns my delicate skin

 

Lady Moon, Lady Moon

Do not forsake me

In my time of need

You have been there for me

When the sinners have not

 

Lady Moon, Lady Moon

You are so pure

As if carved of marble

By the great creator’s swift hands

After many millennia

But you remain the same

 

Lady Moon, Lady Moon

Please don’t ever change

 

Author's Note

Although in the poem I say the moon does not change, I know that's not true but what I mean is that she is always there, even if we can't see her.

Being that I worship the Goddess of the Moon - to a certain degree - I enjoyed this poem a lot. I could just imagine a lovely young lady pleading with the Moon from far below as I read it. It makes me want to write a dedication to the moon myself.
